Blues Pinoy

August 12, 2009 was a sad day for Blues fans and guitar players all over the world. It was the day Lester William Polsfuss, more popularly known as simply Les Paul, returned to his Maker. Still, his name will continue to be associated with the Blues, with the guitar he designed, the Gibson Les Paul. Among the notable artists who have used this axe are Eric Clapton, Joe Walsh, Slash, Trent Reznor, and many more. Of note, Bob Marley also had one especially made for him.
